The photochemical reduction of CO2 at a TiO2 surface in the presence of H2O has been investigated. CO, CH4, H2, and some higher hydrocarbons CnHm, attributed to C2H6, could be detected as photoproducts by mass spectrometry. No oxidation products of H2O could be found. The temperature dependence of the reaction was inv…

A novel phase of nickel hydroxide with an average interlayer spacing 5.4–5.6 Å has been synthesized which is neither α nor β type but is an interstratification of both. It ages to the β form in strong alkali. These observations have implications on the dissolution–reprecipitation mechanism suggested for the α→β transf…

A model for predicting the flashover voltage of ice-covered insulators energized with AC voltage is presented in this paper. The model takes into account the variation of ice surface conductivity as a function of freezing water conductivity. The effects of the length of the arc on its own characteristics, as well as t…

Rewritable full‐color recording is potentially technologically important but has not yet been realized. A cholesteric low‐molecular‐weight compound (see Figure) is presented that, in the form of a thin film, displays iridescent colors at room temperature (see the cover picture of this issue) that can be recorded and e…

The first observation of soft X-ray induced excited spin state trapping has been made for [Fe(phen)2(NCS)2] and [Fe(phen)2(NCSe)2] (phen = 1,10-phenanthroline) at ca. 45 K, analogous to light induced excited spin state trapping but at much higher energy. Soft X-ray photochemistry has also been observed in the high- an…
